What happens when fronts meet?

When fronts meet from the opposite and collide, it is called an occluded front. A cold occluded front is cold air shoving under cool air at the Earth's surface thus the name 'cold occlusion'. The cold warm air boundary aloft is often west of the surface front. A warm occlusion is when cool air rises over cold air at the surface thus the name 'warm occlusion'. The warm-cold air boundary aloft is often east of the surface front. By Lisa Gardiner


How does frontal occur?

Warm air rises quicklier then cold air. When those two meet, the warmer and lighter air rises OVER the colder and heavier air. If the warm air rises the warm air coolsdown when it's very high, and then the warm air forms clouds. A front is the place where cold and warm air meets. Along fronts in Europe, there are found a lot of rain and clouds most of the time.
